Hallberg-Rassy HR55

The Hallberg-Rassy 55 reflects many of the innovations as shown in the 64, with lots of natural light through large tempered glass
portlights in the saloon, as well as four hull portlights and seven flush
mounted skylight hatches. White painted
wooden panels in the saloon alcoves further contribute to the spacious and
inviting feel.

The rig has triple spreaders, which are only
swept back three degrees resulting in extra stability and are not in the way
when sailing downwind. Furthermore, there is an option for jumpstay that gives
additional stability when using a permanent hydraulic cutterstay. The permanent
cutterstay gives freedom and comfort for ocean crossings.

Continuous improvements for model year 2018

• The floorboards are now in the same wood type as the rest of the interior

• When push button sailing is ordered, the buttons now have back lighted text, which makes night sailing easier

• Automatic fire extinguisher
for the engine room.

•When radar pole is ordered: The pole is now
hinged, which makes life a lot easier at for example winter storage or
lifting the boat in a travellift

• The switch panel at the work table is upgraded to a new more attractive design in silver grey

Compared to the 54, the new 55 has as much as
30 cm longer cockpit. The helmsman's position is slightly elevated like on the
64. The superstructure of the 55 is lower in the forward end compared to the 54
and more elegant. As on the 64, there is no garage necessary for the sliding
hatch. The top part of the side panel of the windscreen is slightly curved, as
on the new 412. The steering pedestal allows space for an integrated 14 inch
plotter.
